Beavertail Seascape
With all this talk about the Supermoon in late June, I thought I would take the opportunity to break from the sailing photography and shoot a seascape. I hadn't been out to shoot a seascape in over a month and it was time to go somewhere quiet and soak in the scene!
I decided to head over to Beavertail which I had been sorely neglecting, and catch the rising moon as the sun set behind me. I did not include the lighthouse but instead climbed down the rocks as the tide was going out, providing me with a safe opportunity to get close to the water's edge.
It was two nights before the true Supermoon so I know the moon would be near full but not necessarily huge. I simply used it as an element in the seascape and hopefully you can pick it out!
Below are two shots from the evening, which can be ordered as Fine Art prints through my website, www.catebrownphoto.com. Enjoy!

Warm Getaways
I had been eagerly awaiting this winter season. Here in New England, the winter months can be rather frigid, but for those of us who don’t mind the exhaustive work of climbing into 6 mil wetsuits or ice-cream-headache cold waters, it’s the eagerly anticipated winter months that bring the biggest swells. We had snow before the New Year and water temps quickly started approaching 40°F. But in typical fashion, as soon as the long awaited winter months arrived, I was craving a break from the cold gray in favor of a warm water reprieve.
Board Portraits // Experiments
I've been wanting to shoot more portraits lately, but in combination with the surf community that I've been so involved with the past year. My good friend, Kevin Tanner, behind Soudnings Surf Co creates some gorgeous handcrafted boards. He does all his own shaping, resin work, and glassing, and I wanted to photograph some beautiful boards to highlight his craftsmanship as well as portraits of my friends who ride them. I decided to do board portraits.
Snowy Surf Sessions
A lot of us enjoy the warm weather, but a select few of us still enjoy (or perhaps tolerate) the cold weather. And nothing quite says winter like a fresh snowfall! On the rare occasion Rhode Island experiences more than one inch of snow while there's swell in the water, you can find a select few of dedicated riders on the shore eager to have a snow session.
